Re: Walmart 2023 Closings

Re: Krispy Kreme Discontinues Grocery Store Line

$1.99 is not that different than Safeway. A Safeway in San Ramon, California with Pavilions decor sells boring store made donuts for $1.79 each.

Re: Walmart observations

They are supposed to use diamond pads to grind concrete down so it shines. When a Walmart near me got a concrete floor conversion from tile about 5 years ago, it was really shiny at first.

Krispy Kreme Discontinues Grocery Store Line

Krispy Kreme is ending its grocery store line. They will focus on fresh donuts and donuts sold at McDonald's.

The grocery store ones had preservatives and were stale.
